Finally
After looking at these great machines for years, I finally bought one. 08 black coupe, 3LT, Z51 package. What a car. The only bad part, I had to leave the car in AZ while I fly across the country for 2 weeks before I can get back to AZ and drive it home in CA. Never thought I would look forward to driving from Scottsdale to Pasadena. The plane I fly is fun, but this will be better. Since I'm new to this, any suggestions will be appreciated.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the new Vette! 
I fly also, and trust me, the Vette is a lot more fun than shooting an instrument approach in the dark on a stormy night!

Its coming home
I fly out tomorrow, 2-6-08 to Pheonix to pick the car up and bring it home. The wife is not all that excited about the car, but when she drives it it will be a different story. Not that it matters.
Thanks for all the responses, and I will post some pics.
